Employers

To stand a chance of attracting and retaining the services of skilled people in the numbers required, the industry needs to develop its own resources; which is why apprenticeship programmes are vital.

Bis Henderson Academy is here to help get your successful apprenticeship programme off the ground.

Key advantages for employers

1. External support

Our specialist Standards Trainers address the individual and developmental learning needs of your employees. We provide all the materials, tools, feedback and encouragement needed to support each learner through the successful completion of their qualifications. We also understand the importance of having a flexible programme that doesn’t disrupt daily business and have Standards Trainers available nationwide 24/7

2. Free development of your people

Where ever possible we utilise funded development programmes. Bis Henderson Academy makes no charge to employers for the provision of these apprenticeship qualifications to Levy funded learners. Apprenticeship learners qualify for full funding provided they:

Have been legally resident in the UK for a minimum of 3 years

Work 20 hours per week or more

Do not already have a qualification at level 4 or higher (e.g. HND, BA, BSc)

Do not have GCSE English, Maths and ICT at grade C or above, and are not currently in state-funded education

3. Support for the core roles in your business

The learning and development we facilitate focuses on the core, interpersonal and influencing skills which can make the difference between an order won or lost. Our approach offers more than just a range of standard courses. We deliver professional development but also offer bespoke qualifications to support individual business needs. This develops the exact competencies needed to increase returns in your business.

4. Identifying talent

Employers want a positive workforce. By working with people who are enthusiastic about supply chain and logistics, and supporting them effectively, we create motivated staff. This can reduce your staff turnover and absenteeism, creating a culture of loyalty and engagement.

5. Addressing the industry wide skills shortage

Today’s supply chain industry is one of the world’s most sophisticated, vibrant, and important industries, underpinned by the very latest technology. To keep up with the gathering pace of change in the industry, the skills, capabilities and knowledge of supply chain leaders must be second to none. Currently the demand for high-calibre staff to fill these challenging roles outstrips the supply of suitable candidates; the Academy is here to address this urgent need.
